Wisconsin Star To a special friend who lives so far away From my heart to yours, I hope to say How Blessed I’ve been since I met you A soul from heaven with a heart so true You reside up north in “Santa’s” state Yet found your way to me by a hand of fate To touch my heart and let me see That grace and beauty still exist in humanity How lucky I am to have found such a soul One who enriches my life and makes it whole For I could circle this globe from end to end And never find as beautiful a friend Within you resides a most special gift One which allows you to touch and gently lift The heart’s of those who pass your way How rich their lives must be each day! With each new dawn I just seem to find Visions of you my friend, etched upon my mind And as I journey through life to destination’s unknown With you safe in my heart, I know I’m never alone Now as the sun says goodnight to the western sky And the stars shine brightly in the heaven’s so high Just look on our front porch, for there I can be found In the arms of an angel, so safe and sound The end…… |

Tincan~~~~ That was a beautiful poem. I especially liked the line..."Now as the sun says goodnight to the western sky And the stars shine brightly in the heaven’s so high" Just beautiful. "Even a fool knows you can't touch the stars, but it doesn't stop a wise man from trying." Harry Anderson, "Night Court" *Cassandra Roseen* |

Beautiful poem Tincan...so heartfelt and loving. I'm from Wisconsin myself....haven't seen Santa yet though...lol. Thank you for sharing your heart. That is one very lucky Wisconsonite! ~Kelly ~Kellsue Reflect upon your present blessings-of which every man has many-not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some. ~Charles Dickens We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give. ~Winston Churchill |

Thank you so very much to everyone who took the time to comment, they are very much appreciated The individual for whom this poem was written is very important to me, in some small way I hoped I was able to say "thank you" to her for making my life so much better. Much peace and happiness to all of you! |
